उत्तर
Economic exploitation: The British people made India the cheapest centre for the supply of raw materials, and a dumping ground of their finished goods. They flooded the Indian markets with British made goods. This completely crippled the Indian industries. The Indian artisans and craftsmen had to give up their ancestral occupations and to take up farming or the work of labours on very low wages. There prevailed a lot of poverty everywhere. All classes of society were adversely affected. Since all white Englishmen in the administration received their salaries from the Indian treasury, a huge amount of money was drawn off from India. The poverty stricken people of India were filled with indignation which made them unite in the struggle for freedom from the British rule.
